A clerk at the Circle K on John Young Parkway told police a man walked into the store and demanded $40 from the register. According to the clerk, the man pretended he had a gun and said he would "shoot this (expletive) up" if the clerk didn't hand over the money.

The robber took off with the cash but was caught by police nearby, police said.

The clerk identified the suspect, Derrick Danels, 46, as the man who robbed him.
